decision rendered in the case of the Atlantic
u Pacific railroad company, which. by an
sWer and argument, raised nearly all the OBJ
1ections that were presented in part only. by
u number of other companies. Two days
later orders withdrawing the lands within
the indemnity limits and reserving same
from settlement were revoked and the lands
restored to the public domain and to settle
ment. first, in the cases OF two companies
which had not answered; second, in those
which answered and assented: third in the
cases of companies, which set up defenses com

mona & st. Peter, it is provided that upon
filing maps designating the rates of said
roads and branches it shall be the duty OF the
secretary of the interior to withdraw from
the market lands embraced within the pro-
visions of the act making the grant. In con-
sequence of this provision, these roads were
omitted from the orders of restoration.
1t will be seen from the order passed in the
Atlantic Il Pacific case, and which was APP
piled to other companies. mutatis mutandls,
that whilst it was determined that the lands
in question should not longer be withheld
from appropriation underline settlement laws,
every precaution possible was taken to pro-
tcct the legal rights of the corporation.
Following this action Instructions were
subsequently issued to the commissioner of
the general land Office to detail all the avail
able force in his Office TO the work OF ADJUST
ing the road grants, and proceeding as rap
idly as possible with the same. The amount
of land revised to the public domain, through
the orders revolting the indemnity with
drawals, is stated by the commissioner of the
general land Office to be 81 ,323 600 acres.

The knights of Labor.

New York, Nov 29.-fSpecial Telegram to
the Bee. The World gives figures this
morning showing that the knights Of Labor
in New England number only 25,OO0 against
5000 in 1856, the seeeders going into trades
assemblies. The cause for this loss of strength
is said TO be disgust with the Philadelphia
crowd, incapacity Of the local manage
ment, particularly in strikes, and the fact
that certain leaders tried TO prostitute their
offices for private ends.
